So-Called Dollars are a category of medals and tokens that commemorate events, individuals, or milestones, often issued in the form of one-dollar pieces, particularly popular in the United States. The term originates from a series of items created during the 19th and 20th centuries, which were not official currency but were designed to resemble or be used similarly to dollar coins. The 1945 So-Called Dollar issues typically celebrate events from that year or notable figures, contributing to their collectible status due to their historical significance and limited production. Collectors seek these pieces for their artistic designs and the stories they represent, making them a distinct part of numismatic history.
